Paroles de Devils

Three little devils are laughing togetherThey're playing and singing and dancing and ringingThe bell makes no sound audible to the crowdBut inside i can hear it, goddamn i can feel it

One has the matches, while the other has gasesThe third one is smiling and waiting and watchingWhen the moment is right, oh my brain will igniteAnd the flame will consume it and twist it and move it

Our bodies are spineless and sticky and eyelessThey writhe through the soil as they curl and coilWe're slithering blindly in unholy harmony

Our fleshes are fusing and seeping and oozingThe fluids we're blending and mixing and mendingOur souls whisper secrets in tongues made of fireIt's sweet and it's sickly and salty and sourWe're swimming in pools made of milk, honey showersThe stars are all shining so bright and so lovely

I wish i could pluck them like fruit from tree branchesOf course god won't allow it, no, no, he won't have itBut wormwood has fallen right into my pocketHe's speaking and signing and winking and whining

"oh, lucifer, lucifer lead me to shelter"Because everyone knows that the devil is clever"i can't, i am sorry, i'm burning forever"My brains weren't bredFor loving my battered bonesAnd sweet john has said"i'll rise when the horses roam"For now, i'll sing my sinsBecause it makes me a better manThan i've ever beenAs i put down my hands and i look at this pageWell i think to myself, "what the hell have i made?"It was never my choice, no, i was never in chargeBut these voices keep yelling, "yes you are, yes you are"
